Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) knows NO boundaries

In Australia approximately 30,000 people each year sustain a Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) outside of a hospital and are treated by emergency medical services (EMS).

That’s 575 Australians suffering a SCA every week and

ONLY 1 out of 10 WILL SURVIVE!

The Facts

  • On average, only 10% of SCA victims in Australia survive

  • It can happen anytime, anywhere and to anyone… even fit young athletes

  • Early defibrillation is the single most effective treatment for SCA

  • Defibrillation within three minutes of collapse can increase the chance of survival to over 70%

Are YOU Able, Willing and READY to help?

Save Lives in your community with our Heart Safe Community Program

Are YOU READY, WILLING and ABLE to potentially SAVE a LIFE in your own Community?

Our Heart Safe Home Community Program initiative was created to raise awareness and education about the very important 3-STEPS to potentially save a life during a Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) out-of-hospital and about the vital function that defibrillators (AED) can perform in potentially saving lives in communities across Australia.  

Defibrillators are basically a ‘Doctor in a Box’, analysing the patient's condition and providing guidance for CPR and importantly shocking the patient to re-start the heart if required.

Whether you are familiar with the 3-Steps to save a life and already have a defibrillator or AED, join our Heart Safe Community program initiative to make sure you and the people in your community are READY, WILLING and ABLE to help in potentially very stressful life and death situations.
